We've said it before and we'll say it again: Living Proof are allergic to missing when it comes to their eponymous magazine and their latest issue once again proves that rule as they come through with another one for the history books. As always, Living Proof Magazine Issue 15 features their unique blend of counter-culture niches as they round up a fresh crop of artists, skaters, musicians and other creative types to dive deep into subculture in all its forms. Have a read below to find out more about what's inside Living Proof Issue 15 and grab your copy from CSC now before they're gone!

Getting things off to a strong start, on the cover of Issue 15 we've got none other than hardcore punk royalty, Paul 'HR' Hudson. Best known for being the frontman of seminal hardcore punk band, Bad Brains, his distinctive vocals and unmistakable stage presence helped establish the band as a cornerstone of the genre - a feat made even more impressive due to the fact that they were an all-black band at a time when the scene was mostly white. Alongside his dashing cover photo, Living Proof Issue 15 also features a new interview with HR as he discusses everything including maintaining his positive mentality, his switch from hardcore punk to reggae and his lasting musical influence.

Of course this is only scratching the surface of what Living Proof have got in store for you as Issue 15 features plenty more top-quality interviews and articles with a load of other legends from all corners of subculture. Inside the mag, you can find interviews with graffiti legends like SABER; art icons like Tadanori Yokoo and the people behind Toronto's Crack Gallery; Japanese actor, writer, DJ and radio presenter (to name a few of his many hats), Kunichi Nomura; DJ and watch dealer, Adrian Douzmanian; owner of Despair Books, Addison Kirst; as well as deep dives into the iconic Clarks Wallabee in their 'Wally Champs' piece and New York's infamous Smith Street tattoo parlour. No matter what you're into, Living Proof Magazine Issue 15 has all the bases covered and you're guaranteed to find someone (or something) new to nerd out on.

Art and culture's cool and everything however we'd be lying if we said we weren't a bit biased towards skateboarding but luckily Living Proof Issue 15 has got that covered in typical fashion as well. Following on from Reynolds' cover and interview from a few issues ago, they've now treated us to an interview with fellow Baker Boy and all-time legend, Erik Ellington, as he chats about his sobriety, growing older as a skater and his various business ventures over the years while also serving up some serious looks. What's more, we've also been treated to an inside look into the trials and tribulations of Last Resort AB as they discuss what it's like standing up against the corporations as one of the last remaining skater-owned shoe brands.

That's enough chit-chat though. Head to the shop to browse Living Proof Magazine and buy now from CSC. Or, find out more about the latest skate product on the CSC Blog. Safe.
